I woke up this morning to sunshine and warm summer weather and the realization that this is my favorite weekend of the year. I said that if I had any money I would totally love my life. The famous (and obviously wise) ML told me to "Love it anyway". So I will.

Here are the things I love about my life. Not in order (so my kid can't take anything personally.)

I have choices. Even when it doesn't seem like it. I eat ice cream for dinner whenever I want. Or cheese and crackers. Or vodka.My friends love me and let me be me and don't judge, even when I think they should.My daughter feels comfortable enough and trusts me enough to tell me things I don't always want to hear. I live with puppies. I can order my pizza without meat.Making mistakes isn't as scary as it used to be.Booze exists, is delicious, legal and I'm not allergic to it.I'm a food whore and will therefore never die of anorexia.I know that knowing what I want isn't wrong.My kid is really awesome when she's not annoying me. I can be alone or with a girlfriend or a room full of people and I'm okay with all of it. Most of the time.My sadness is temporary.I can keep the covers to myself.I can let the dogs on the couch or on the bed because it's all mine.Laughter is usually just a text away.I'm still surprised. Often.

And now I'm going to go continue loving my life in the sunshine. Cheers!

About Me

Kat

Bios are dumb. I like to talk, but not about myself. Here's the short story.
I have a teenager, which means I wing it every day. I love my dogs, shoes, cheese and martinis. My turnoffs are spiders and brussels sprouts. I want to live in Disneyland.
The rest I make up as I go.
